Philly: Midnight Maoz

I recently entered the world of falafel, and think we should have a regular ride to maoz ala the "pretzel ride". If anyone wants to go with me tonight, we can meet up from west philly and roll down. Maybe at the art museum?
holla at me.

I'm out again this week. My girlfriend is dragging me (very much against my will) to a club called Fluid or Liquid or something like that, where I will be certain to embarass myself in front of at least a few people.

Mondays might be better, as most people seem to be busy fridays. I am still going to go tonight, and Ill see what their hours are during the week. Love park would be an ok meeting spot for me.

Or we could meet at 25th and Locust and ride the path, then down the fast bit to Love Park, then through the city to Maoz. And Mondays would be better for me too.

yeah how can you deny the alliteration of Maoz Mondays? I like the trail idea. 25th and locust works for me. i have to run errands near maoz today so i'll check the closing time for mondays and maybe we can start this tomorrow night. if they happen to close at midnight or 11 or something on mondays we can make it a 10:00 start/ late dinner type ride.
